- 0:14Speaker 1: Silver Away, a fiery horse with a speed of light,
- 0:21Speaker 1: a cloud of dust, and the hardy Hio Silver, the
- 0:25Speaker 1: Lone Ranger, the.
- 1:01Speaker 2: Name of a a aaaaaaaaaaaaa.
- 1:58Speaker 3: N.
- 2:05Speaker 1: The engineers who built roads and bridges in the Western
- 2:07Speaker 1: United States before the coming of the railroad faced many dangers.
- 2:11Speaker 1: The forces of nature, outlaws, and hostile indians combined to
- 2:15Speaker 1: make the work almost impossible. And I had not been
- 2:19Speaker 1: for the strength and courage of the masked Rider of
- 2:21Speaker 1: the Plains, the winning of the West might never have
- 2:24Speaker 1: been accomplished. Return with us now, of those thrilling days
- 2:28Speaker 1: of yesteryear. Come out of the pass, come the thundering
- 2:30Speaker 1: hoof beach, the great horse Silver, the Lone Ranger rides again.
- 2:35Speaker 3: Come on Silver ran for the Canyon Trail Thomas Waiting
- 2:40Speaker 3: Horse House Hilver Hawaii.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Knife Womb Canyon was so named because of its formation,
- 3:04Speaker 1: a long, deep gash in the earth's surface. The canyon
- 3:07Speaker 1: made it necessary for both horsemen and stage coaches to
- 3:11Speaker 1: spend an extra day in crossing the state. One of
- 3:14Speaker 1: the greatest engineering projects of the age was a bridge
- 3:16Speaker 1: under construction across the gap. A Lone Ranger and Tonto
- 3:20Speaker 1: rode to the night along the canyon's rim. Far ahead,
- 3:24Speaker 1: they could see the flickering light of a campfire. And
- 3:26Speaker 1: when the railroad comes this way to Tada, the tracks
- 3:29Speaker 1: can be run across the bridge. It's one of the
- 3:31Speaker 1: greatest things that has been done in the state. Sam
- 3:35Speaker 1: Barton's name will go into history as one of the
- 3:37Speaker 1: builders of the West.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Soon railroad come this way. Eh, that's right, KIMOSSEV.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Look way over there on the other side of the canyon.
- 3:45Speaker 1: You can see the workmen's camp. Ah hunt, fim. I
- 3:49Speaker 1: wonder who's camp on this side. Certainly not any of
- 3:52Speaker 1: the workmen. They're all working from the other side. That right,
- 3:56Speaker 1: seems to me there are some men.
- 3:57Speaker 4: Around that campfire. Go see for men and that not Indians.
- 4:02Speaker 5: Oh, not Indian.
- 4:04Speaker 1: There are indians around here. We saw signs of them
- 4:06Speaker 1: before sunset.
- 4:07Speaker 6: Mm hmm.
- 4:08Speaker 1: How it's a fire not engine. Well we'll soon see
- 4:11Speaker 1: who they are. It doesn't matter. But it's an odd
- 4:13Speaker 1: place for men to make Canada.
- 4:28Speaker 4: One of them has heard our horses. He's standing listening raining.
- 4:33Speaker 7: Is that you button Burton? Same Burton? Why would he
- 4:38Speaker 7: be on this side?
- 4:39Speaker 8: We hud your horse, Come on here.
- 4:41Speaker 1: We're waiting for you stay here twa wait while I
- 4:43Speaker 1: go on? Come on, boy, that's right?
- 4:45Speaker 8: Button? Is that you rain it?
- 4:47Speaker 3: Come on?
- 4:48Speaker 4: What's the matter?
- 4:49Speaker 8: You don't want to stay here?
- 4:50Speaker 4: Wait? All right?
- 4:51Speaker 8: Where are you there?
- 4:52Speaker 4: That's my business?
- 4:53Speaker 7: Hey? Where'd you get the white horse? Come on? Close
- 4:56Speaker 7: to the fire must be sort of cold riding tonight.
- 4:58Speaker 4: I'm all right?
- 5:00Speaker 7: Are you masked?
- 5:01Speaker 4: Yes?
- 5:01Speaker 8: What of it was the idea of being masked?
- 5:04Speaker 4: Maybe it wouldn't be wise to be recognized if I
- 5:06Speaker 4: was seen?
- 5:06Speaker 7: Well, maybe not to fetch the cash?
- 5:09Speaker 4: Of what for?
- 5:10Speaker 7: What for us? You promise to have some cash for
- 5:13Speaker 7: us tonight?
- 5:14Speaker 6: You got to get it so as we can get
- 5:15Speaker 6: firewater and have the Redskins re aroused up.
- 5:17Speaker 4: Suppose I didn't bring the cash.
- 5:20Speaker 6: You better had. You promised it, Barton, and we figured
- 5:22Speaker 6: on it. The chances are that Bidge will be done tomorrow.
- 5:25Speaker 6: Once it's done in the matter paid off, we won't
- 5:27Speaker 6: have a chance to stage in the massacre the right.
- 5:30Speaker 7: Let me have a look at this, obre. What's the matter.
- 5:32Speaker 7: Don't sound like Barton speaking?
- 5:34Speaker 4: I'm not Sam Barton.
- 5:35Speaker 7: Just what I thought, Rach.
- 5:37Speaker 1: It was risky for Barton himself to come here and
- 5:39Speaker 1: one of the men knew that he was paying you
- 5:41Speaker 1: to get the Indians on the murder trail, he'd be finished.
- 5:44Speaker 7: So Barton sends you, huh, how.
- 5:46Speaker 4: Much cash did he promise you?
- 5:48Speaker 7: How much did he send?
- 5:49Speaker 4: Look here, I don't know you men. How do I
- 5:52Speaker 4: know you're the right ones?
- 5:53Speaker 8: Right or wrong?
- 5:53Speaker 6: We're the ones that's been promised hard cash. And either
- 5:56Speaker 6: we get her or we call the whole deal off.
- 5:58Speaker 6: How shall our stranger be fat honest?
- 6:00Speaker 9: I gotta draw hide this year? The horse, the mask,
- 6:03Speaker 9: that horse of silver. This is a lone ranger. What
- 6:05Speaker 9: shoot shoot the critter?
- 6:06Speaker 4: Why kill him?
- 6:09Speaker 8: Shoot again? Get him by? He called my gun on
- 6:11Speaker 8: my handle, My boy, come on this way, hand ups counts.
- 6:20Speaker 4: I'm waiting for Sam. What the builder of the bridge
- 6:23Speaker 4: and the plan to kill the man steal the money?
- 6:25Speaker 4: What do now? Down down into the canyon? You know
- 6:28Speaker 4: what trail? What doom? We'll ride to that camp. First
- 6:31Speaker 4: of all, I want to know Sam. Barton's really crooked.
- 6:33Speaker 4: I can't believe he is.
- 6:35Speaker 8: Come on silver.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Later that same night, after a dangerous ride to the canyon,
- 6:56Speaker 1: the lone Ranger moves silently through the bridge builders camp.
- 7:00Speaker 1: When he reached Sam Barton's shack. He opened the door
- 7:02Speaker 1: and stepped inside. Barton, Wake up, what's wrong? Wake up
- 7:07Speaker 1: Barton and listen to me.
- 7:08Speaker 4: Tain't morning yet? What's up?
- 7:10Speaker 7: Say? Who are you?
- 7:11Speaker 1: Someone who calls himself Sam Barton is meeting plotters on
- 7:14Speaker 1: the other side of the canyon.
- 7:15Speaker 7: Did you know that? Who is it?
- 7:16Speaker 4: I don't know, but I do know.
- 7:17Speaker 1: There's a plan to have the Indians attack your men
- 7:19Speaker 1: as soon as the bridge is finished.
- 7:21Speaker 7: For you sure that?
- 7:22Speaker 4: Who are you?
- 7:23Speaker 1: As long as the bridge is not finished, the Indians
- 7:25Speaker 1: can't get here. That bridge is done tomorrow, they'll be
- 7:28Speaker 1: ready to massacre all of you. Oh and what's your suggestion?
- 7:31Speaker 1: I think I can bring help this Nami post with
- 7:34Speaker 1: a commandants, a friend of mine.
- 7:35Speaker 7: It'll take two days to get the troops.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Postpone completing the bridge until two days more.
- 7:39Speaker 7: So that's it.
- 7:41Speaker 6: Postpone it and spoil our records or the contract will
- 7:43Speaker 6: be forfeited. Will you forfeit the country? I see through
- 7:46Speaker 6: the scheme. We were promised a bonus that we've got
- 7:48Speaker 6: finished ahead of time. You're sent here to slow us,
- 7:50Speaker 6: so we won't be paid that bonus. Nothing of the
- 7:52Speaker 6: sort you'll get but forget, I say, Claire out, I'll
- 7:55Speaker 6: have the whole camp on you, scheming to do us
- 7:56Speaker 6: out of the bonus.
- 7:57Speaker 7: Huh why you.
- 8:14Speaker 1: The next morning, before the men started work, Sam Barton
- 8:17Speaker 1: pulled them all together.
- 8:18Speaker 7: And then get.
- 8:19Speaker 6: Close, boys, so you can hear what I say. Today
- 8:23Speaker 6: is the big day. We got a few hours work
- 8:26Speaker 6: and then the bridge is done, the planks will cross
- 8:28Speaker 6: the canyon.
- 8:29Speaker 8: I want every mother's.
- 8:30Speaker 6: Son of you to know that I'm proud of you,
- 8:32Speaker 6: proud of the courage and loyalty your show. The whole
- 8:35Speaker 6: state's proud of you. We're going to finish ahead of schedule,
- 8:38Speaker 6: and then you'll get your pay.
- 8:39Speaker 4: There's our pay, come more.
- 8:41Speaker 7: The pay is here.
- 8:42Speaker 6: You'll get it as soon as you step from the
- 8:43Speaker 6: bridge to the far side.
- 8:44Speaker 7: Of Knife Wound Canyon. Pay in four plus a bonus.
- 8:48Speaker 6: Then you'll have two days off before we make the
- 8:50Speaker 6: finishing touches a bonus.
- 8:54Speaker 8: I'll mean on you, boys.
- 8:56Speaker 7: I'll meet you with a cash on the far side
- 8:58Speaker 7: of the canyon.
- 8:59Speaker 4: I'll get gone, hey, bardon.
- 9:02Speaker 8: What's that coming?
- 9:02Speaker 7: I know that voice?
- 9:04Speaker 8: Mess man, I'll.
- 9:06Speaker 4: Yeah, what you're not? My gun up?
- 9:08Speaker 8: The man's mass is an outlaw I.
- 9:09Speaker 7: Don't call for shooting him.
- 9:11Speaker 4: I want to spit to you.
- 9:12Speaker 8: Let me trail him. Barton.
- 9:16Speaker 4: Last night I spoke to you in your shack.
- 9:18Speaker 7: I didn't know then that you wore a mask.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I told you it would mean death to every man
- 9:21Speaker 1: here to complete that bridge across the canyon inside of
- 9:23Speaker 1: two days.
- 9:24Speaker 8: It's local. Why should it mean death.
- 9:26Speaker 4: I'll tell you why. Indians are gathering on the other side.
- 9:29Speaker 4: They're going to be filled with whiskey and then sent
- 9:31Speaker 4: to wipe out you men. That's a lot of lies.
- 9:33Speaker 8: Boys.
- 9:34Speaker 3: All he wants to do is to keep it from
- 9:36Speaker 3: finishing the bridge so we don't get off bonus rack Teas.
- 9:40Speaker 3: Maybe Barton's hired him to do that, how about it, Barton, Yeah, that.
- 9:44Speaker 8: Ain't so, Joe. You know better than that.
- 9:46Speaker 3: I don't know Barton, to save a heap of cass
- 9:48Speaker 3: if you don't have to pay that bonus.
- 9:50Speaker 7: Why didn't you think of that before?
- 9:51Speaker 8: Boys? Are we finishing the bridge today?
- 9:55Speaker 4: You're wrong.
- 9:56Speaker 1: You're not going to finish it today. You're not going
- 9:58Speaker 1: to finish it until the army sends true here to
- 10:00Speaker 1: drive away the Indians. If they attack, you.
- 10:02Speaker 6: Think you'll stop you, I'll handle this stranger. I don't
- 10:05Speaker 6: know what your idea is, but you're not going to
- 10:07Speaker 6: stop our work. We've thought through on this job against
- 10:10Speaker 6: every handicap that nature and man could conceive. We're not
- 10:13Speaker 6: going to stop because the Indians are drinking whiskey.
- 10:16Speaker 8: If they are gone.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Boys in one minute, Martin, I didn't come here to
- 10:21Speaker 1: make threats without being ready to back them up.
- 10:23Speaker 8: He's bluffing, yes, I think he is.
- 10:25Speaker 1: If you insist on going ahead with that job, then
- 10:27Speaker 1: you'll find that you'll have more work to do. I'm
- 10:29Speaker 1: blasting powder planted where it'll tear away part of the bridge.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Don't make me signal for that powder to be fired.
- 10:35Speaker 1: That's bluff, nothing but bluff.
- 10:37Speaker 4: No, it isn't button.
- 10:38Speaker 8: It's bluff.
- 10:38Speaker 6: And I'm calling you gone boys, cross over and gonna work.
- 10:42Speaker 4: I'll give the signal when the first man puts a
- 10:44Speaker 4: foot on the bridge. I don't know who I should believe.
- 10:46Speaker 4: You know that bridge and you won't live long.
- 10:48Speaker 7: Gonna work, man, that's an order.
- 10:50Speaker 4: You're calling me button, you're called very well. There's a signal.
- 10:55Speaker 8: I'll ste.
- 11:15Speaker 7: Well, boys, there's extra work for us now.
- 11:18Speaker 8: Dog Gone didn't ride at all.
- 11:20Speaker 7: Boss, now what that mask man wasn't bluffing.
- 11:22Speaker 3: Ain't much damn is there? Button can be fixed and
- 11:25Speaker 3: we still can finish the job.
- 11:26Speaker 6: There's a lot more than three hours work there, sure,
- 11:28Speaker 6: but we'll work all night if need be. Won't wait man,
- 11:32Speaker 6: That mask man said he wanted to ride for troops
- 11:34Speaker 6: to help us against the savage.
- 11:35Speaker 4: Look Button, I'll tell you what.
- 11:37Speaker 3: You get the boys working double time, and I'll ride
- 11:39Speaker 3: over to the other side and scout around.
- 11:41Speaker 7: Can you get over there, Joe?
- 11:42Speaker 4: Sure thing.
- 11:42Speaker 3: We'll take the best horse, will find a trail somehow.
- 11:45Speaker 3: I'll see if there's redskins there. You get the boys going.
- 11:48Speaker 3: If I don't bring back wood or cold away from
- 11:50Speaker 3: the other side of the canyon, you'll know there's no
- 11:52Speaker 3: sign of redskins. Good, come on, boys, we've got twice
- 11:56Speaker 3: as much to do now soon.
- 11:57Speaker 8: If I get started, the better, all right.
- 12:12Speaker 4: Joe rode into the canyon. As the men went to work.
- 12:14Speaker 1: The blasts and the Lone Ranger's warning had sobered them,
- 12:17Speaker 1: but they obeyed barton orders without hesitation. In the meantime,
- 12:21Speaker 1: the Lone Ranger had reached open country. Come on, Silver,
- 12:25Speaker 1: a great horse Silver raced across the Plains heading for
- 12:28Speaker 1: the distant army post. A while after mile flashed by,
- 12:31Speaker 1: until finally.
- 12:35Speaker 4: Who goes there? I've come to see Captain Grimes. Take
- 12:38Speaker 4: this silver bullet to him.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Captain Grimes has gone to Fort McHenry. Colonel Martin is
- 12:42Speaker 1: now in charge. Who are you with that mask? Captain
- 12:44Speaker 1: Grims would have known me. Let me speak to your colonel.
- 12:46Speaker 7: Who is his? Colonel Martin and the colonel who are you?
- 12:49Speaker 4: Colonel?
- 12:49Speaker 1: If Captain Grimes were here, he would know who I
- 12:51Speaker 1: am because of the silver bullet I've just handed your guard.
- 12:54Speaker 7: Well, I'm not, Captain Grime.
- 12:55Speaker 1: The need remains the same. The engineers at Knife Wound
- 12:58Speaker 1: Canyon are in need of help.
- 13:00Speaker 7: Yes, how long has the fight been going on? It
- 13:02Speaker 7: hasn't started yet, it's started, and why should it start?
- 13:05Speaker 1: It's certain to croaks have inside of the Indians. Remove
- 13:09Speaker 1: that mad I can't do that, Colonel Martin. Over fifty
- 13:12Speaker 1: men will be massacred if you don't send troops to
- 13:14Speaker 1: help them.
- 13:15Speaker 7: There are new regulations out of Washington. Captain Grimes has
- 13:18Speaker 7: been removed because he seemed to antagonize the Indians. My
- 13:22Speaker 7: orders are rigid until there is a fight I cannot
- 13:25Speaker 7: send out the cavalry.
- 13:26Speaker 1: But Colonel, they will attack as soon as the bridge
- 13:28Speaker 1: is across the Kenyon.
- 13:29Speaker 7: I'm seriously, but you yourself have admitted that the Indians
- 13:33Speaker 7: have not yet attacked. Until they do, I can make
- 13:36Speaker 7: no move.
- 13:36Speaker 4: By that time it'll be too late.
- 13:38Speaker 7: I have my instructions, and as a soldier, I must
- 13:41Speaker 7: obeyed them.
- 13:41Speaker 1: The life of every one of those men depends on
- 13:43Speaker 1: your raid. I'm sorry, Colonel Martin. I've ridden hard to
- 13:46Speaker 1: get here. I thought I could count on your help.
- 13:48Speaker 7: You can, unless it's in violation of my instructions from Washington.
- 13:53Speaker 1: Instructions must sometimes be changed to meet conditions here in
- 13:55Speaker 1: the West.
- 13:56Speaker 7: I'm a soldier, say, I cannot assume metauthority.
- 13:59Speaker 4: And Colonel I you ment will follow you Let me down, sir?
- 14:02Speaker 4: What does he mean?
- 14:03Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Colney, start to the god corporal help.
- 14:20Speaker 1: The curtain falls on the first act of tonight's Lone
- 14:22Speaker 1: Ranger of Drama. Before the next exciting scenes, plead for
- 14:26Speaker 1: Minis to pause for just a few moments. I'll continue
- 15:29Speaker 1: our story. As a construction crew near the completion of
- 15:33Speaker 1: their work, Sam Barton's assistant let the outlaws on the
- 15:36Speaker 1: far side of the canyon. Hey, come here to check
- 15:38Speaker 1: on things, row Hard Barton.
- 15:40Speaker 6: We don't need no checking out page this last night
- 15:42Speaker 6: we got the liquor for the redskin.
- 15:44Speaker 3: Look, we may as well clear a few things up
- 15:46Speaker 3: in the first place. That mess man you told me
- 15:48Speaker 3: about already knows that Barton ain't the man that come here.
- 15:51Speaker 3: What I ain't Barton, I'm Joe Horne, trying to fool me.
- 15:55Speaker 3: I relax, raw heart, I ain't trying to fool you.
- 15:57Speaker 3: That's why I'm telling you the truth. I'll let you
- 15:59Speaker 3: think my name was Barton at first, just in case
- 16:02Speaker 3: you figured I'm not signing up to my idea.
- 16:04Speaker 7: Savvy uh Reckon.
- 16:06Speaker 3: So that mess man that Kasi call the Lone Ranger
- 16:09Speaker 3: has rich for the Army troops.
- 16:11Speaker 4: Army Trap's right.
- 16:12Speaker 3: He tried to get us to hold up work on
- 16:14Speaker 3: the bridge until he could get back here with the cavalry.
- 16:16Speaker 3: And what between me and Barton, we get the boys
- 16:18Speaker 3: willing to go ahead. Then I fired a blast to
- 16:21Speaker 3: destroy part of the bridge, but not too much. Barton's
- 16:24Speaker 3: got the men going double time over there, and they'll
- 16:26Speaker 3: have it done before the troop can get here.
- 16:27Speaker 7: How soon will the span be completed.
- 16:29Speaker 6: We can get the Redskins to attack from this side
- 16:31Speaker 6: of the canyon, but they never cross over there, and
- 16:33Speaker 6: they're working along.
- 16:34Speaker 3: I reckon it'll be done by Dave rag Minnie Good.
- 16:37Speaker 6: We will manage to keep the Redskins all liquored up
- 16:39Speaker 6: till then without no trouble.
- 16:40Speaker 3: I told Barton, I'd come over here and look around.
- 16:43Speaker 3: If I see any sign of red Skins, I'm to
- 16:45Speaker 3: signal them. Well, I reckon he won't be getting no signal.
- 16:51Speaker 6: They better head back and tell the real Barton. Everything's
- 16:53Speaker 6: all right.
- 16:53Speaker 3: They got plenty of liquor for them Redskins, planning be
- 16:56Speaker 3: able to keep them going.
- 16:56Speaker 8: You see the bridge is done, they'll be set to attack.
- 16:59Speaker 9: Row Hard shore up a plenty. Bar I mean, Joe,
- 17:02Speaker 9: whatever your name is.
- 17:04Speaker 6: I told him that when the bridge was done, the
- 17:06Speaker 6: trains would be next to come, and the steaming Engines
- 17:08Speaker 6: would chase all the game away from this part of
- 17:10Speaker 6: the country. That fetched him Them Redskins are just boiling
- 17:14Speaker 6: to get at the men that built that bridge.
- 17:16Speaker 8: The Engines don't know about the money an.
- 17:19Speaker 6: The Engines will do their part just to keep the
- 17:21Speaker 6: Chuchu trains from coming west.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Good enough, Well, I reckon everything's set. I'll go back
- 17:26Speaker 3: and help along with the work. The more men working,
- 17:29Speaker 3: the sooner.
- 17:30Speaker 7: The bridge is done.
- 17:38Speaker 1: Joe returned to the camp and rewarded to Sam Barton.
- 17:41Speaker 1: You didn't see redskins, Hey, Joe.
- 17:42Speaker 3: No, that mass man just scheming against us.
- 17:45Speaker 4: Like we figured. Button.
- 17:46Speaker 7: I'd sooner take time on this job than have.
- 17:48Speaker 4: Any of our men killed.
- 17:49Speaker 3: You needn't worry about that button. There'd been seventies on
- 17:51Speaker 3: the wall path. I have seen signs that it was
- 17:53Speaker 3: good enough.
- 17:54Speaker 6: Lay to it, boys, I hear Steve, I'll get your hand.
- 17:57Speaker 8: With that bark.
- 18:00Speaker 4: That's it.
- 18:01Speaker 3: But welcome hard as soon as you across the sooner
- 18:05Speaker 3: me and my friends and get some cakes.
- 18:12Speaker 1: In a safe hiding place where he could see without
- 18:15Speaker 1: being seen. Tell her watch the workman his horse scout
- 18:18Speaker 1: beside him them.

- 18:47Speaker 5: them cross over.
- 18:49Speaker 7: That plenty bans.
- 18:56Speaker 1: Raw hiding his man and told the Indians. But as
- 18:59Speaker 1: soon as the bridges can plead, the trains would not
- 19:01Speaker 1: only drive all the game away, but the white men
- 19:03Speaker 1: would steal their horses and children. They promised the redskins
- 19:07Speaker 1: untold riches. If the construction.
- 19:09Speaker 9: Crew was massacred, you sure got them braves all head up, Rawhide,
- 19:13Speaker 9: they're raring to go.
- 19:15Speaker 6: Look at the darn fools hop around there. But you
- 19:17Speaker 6: think they swallowed a passel of Mexican jumpinbies.
- 19:20Speaker 9: They've been doing like that ever since yesterday. I'm scared
- 19:23Speaker 9: that the men in the bridge will hear them and
- 19:25Speaker 9: get wise.
- 19:25Speaker 6: Let them get theirselves worked up. They can't hear him
- 19:28Speaker 6: on the bridge with all the noise I'm making building.
- 19:30Speaker 7: It, say uh, Rawhide.
- 19:32Speaker 9: Me and the boys been sort of hankering for the
- 19:34Speaker 9: feel of a little cash. When you're going to divy
- 19:37Speaker 9: up our share of what Joe paid you to rig
- 19:39Speaker 9: up their scheme.
- 19:40Speaker 6: You'll get what's yours when Joe comes through with the
- 19:42Speaker 6: rest of the dough.
- 19:43Speaker 9: I've been sort of figuring something out in my head, Rawhide,
- 19:47Speaker 9: but I ain't said nothing about it might these strange
- 19:49Speaker 9: coming from you, Kaji. Most times your tongue does all
- 19:52Speaker 9: your thinking sitching here between them dirty years. Well, I
- 19:57Speaker 9: ain't good at figuring, but I reckon Joe will have
- 19:59Speaker 9: a lot a hard cash after the men get killed,
- 20:01Speaker 9: and Bartin don't have to pay him off.
- 20:04Speaker 7: That's Joe's ida. Ain't talking cents so far?
- 20:07Speaker 9: Go on, Well, these engines will only have dealings with us,
- 20:11Speaker 9: so we're the only ones who'll take orders from.
- 20:13Speaker 7: They don't know Joe hired us to this one, Ain't
- 20:16Speaker 7: that right?
- 20:17Speaker 4: Yeah?
